Thoughts about beauty and skin care products

The Body Shop Seaweed range review/ The Body Shop Merevetika sari

The Body Shop Seaweed range is perfect for those who have combination/oily skin. That means me. Occasionally during season changes my skin does tricks by getting drier or oilier, but most of the time it’s just plain combination skin. To take care of my skin the best way, I use seaweed range products. I have talked about these products before in several different posts. This time I put all of them into one, so it would be easier to find information.

It is a soap free face cleanser with mineral rich seaweed from Roaring Water Bay Ireland. I use it as a first step of my morning routine and the second step of my evening routine. It cleanses my skin well. The product removes my makeup traces without any trouble and gives me a clean feel. It foams nicely and smells even better. I would suggest to use something else to remove the thicker layer of makeup beforehand. A micellar water is a good option for that. After washing it leaves my skin soft and ready for a toner and a moisturiser.

It is an alcohol free toner for combination/oily skin. The toner feels cooling and nice on my face. I use it right after I have washed my face with Seaweed Deep Cleansing Gel Wash. After using it, my skin is fresh and clean. The toner prepares my skin for a moisturiser. If I don’t have a moisturiser in hand, I can also leave it like this. The skin feel comfortable already. I also love the scent of the product. Plus, it mattifies my skin which is always nice for me.

This mask is my old favourite. I love how the mask smells, feels on my face and the result I get. On the package it says to leave it on for ten minutes. Depending on how thick the layer I apply, it either dries completely or not. I wouldn’t recommend keeping it on more than fifteen minutes. I once lost myself in a book, and before I realised, almost an hour had passed. It resulted with my skin feeling quite sensitive. So, if you are doing the mask, keep an eye on the time. It’s better for you to follow the instructions when it comes to face masks. Trust me, I learned that the hard way.

After washing it off or removing it with a makeup sponge, my skin feels soft and pure. It is such a wonderful feeling. The facial cream I use after, goes on so smoothly and the feeling is just divine.

This has been my Holy Grail product since May of 2015. It has jojoba beads and olive stone exfoliators. It cleans my pores, smoothes my skin, removes all dead skin cells, and it smells good. The exfoliator has larger grains and can be harsh if you add too much pressure on the skin. If you keep that in mind, everything will be just fine. Plus, it has a really nice design and is easy to use. Also, it keeps zitastrophes under control if there are any. I mean, what else would you want from a facial exfoliator?
